Wow, Colleen, how cool is that???? Congratulations!
 
Awesome results!

I love that a guest thanks you for thinking of her and helping her save 60% on cookware simply for hosting a show this month. :D
 
I love it when you think you are a crappy consultant and a guest tells me that she has been to other PC parties and mine was by far the most fun!:chef:
 
Had my 3rd show tonight in the last 5 days and booked 2 more October dates! I'm up to 9 for October! I'm really proud of myself because on September 20th, I had 2 shows booked for October and 1 was iffy! YAY! I'm *hoping* to have Toronto tied up by the end of the month (if two of my consultants qualify) and if not, by Thanksgiving!!!!!And I've given out 3 recruiting packets!I'm BACK IN THE GAME!!!!!!
 
Awesome, Colleen!! VERY exciting and inspiring!

I will say I DO love that. :) Every time I start to add something it has already been said, ( because I am slow like that, muhahahhaaaa.)

And Colleen... WAHOOOOOO!!!!!!
 
Oooh!! Ooh!! I thought of another one!
I love that I can be in the worst of the worst moods before a show, and once I get there and have adult interaction all of a sudden I am in a good mood again.
I also love how I can do things like wear a stainless mixing bowl on my head and sell a set of them, ya know, for protection against aliens. ;)
 
Becky that's just too funny!!I love that my girls will tell total strangers that they need to have a party to get lots of Pampered Chef stuff for free and because they are fun and food is good. LOL!!

I love that I get such great ideas for other uses for products from fellow consultants!


And thanks for the laugh!:D
 
I LOVE that on Consultants Corner it says I'm "ELIGIBLE FOR LEADS" for the first time in a LOOOONG time.:D

Let's hope they start rolling in!

I think I may use this as a quote on FB! That's how much I love it!
 
I love it when every one of my sons and daughters-in-law have Pampered Chef items on their individual Christmas wish lists even after over 8 years!


You know, this thread should have been in the lounge instead of behind the apron - it's inspiring and would be for other too!
 
I love it when I get referrals from my hosts and they tell the referral they HAVE TO HAVE me as their consultant!

That is awesome! I gave a lot of Pampered Chef last year for Christmas, but I always wonder if they are going to like it.
 
Thanks Becky for the SS bowl/Alien laugh. It's after midnight here, so luckily, I didn't wake the kids when I started laughing!

I love listening to the excitement of my downline when they call to brag about something they just accomplished. :D

I also loved getting a call from a 2nd line to thank me for calling her new recruit (3rd line) to welcome her to the business & congratulate her on recruiting in her first 30 days (4th line). Apparently that one little phone call was huge motivation for the 3rd line girl to start booking shows and go from having a good start to striving towards a GREAT start! :D Maybe I should call ALL the new recruits vs. sending an e-mail! LOL

I was going to say the same exact thing!!!
 
I love that I can up my show schedule whenever I want! I went from averaging 3-6 shows a month to 10 this month and I'm at 6 already for November with 7 more dates that I can do shows!
 
I love that I can follow Colleen around saying "ditto" and no one realizes immediately that I am not capable of original thought. :)
Ok seriously, I love seeing my calendar fill up to meet my goals. I have 11 cooking shows and 5 catalog shows on my November calendar. I love that if one or two of those reschedules I am still ok.
I also love that gold level is within my grasp. Wahoooooo!!!
 
Congrats Becky!!!

I love it when a customer calls me with a catalog show to close out that I didn't even know she was doing...and it's over $800....

Yeah, At first they all got PC but then I was thinking they were tired of getting that so I only did a few things to the DIL's - I love that the first year I cut back on PC the one DIL that I thought "appreciated" PC the least said as she opened her last package "I hope THIS one is Pampered Chef". I was surprised this year when every single one had lists of PC things on those wish lists that I require so I can get what they want but also surprise them.
